Well, GPU renderers arent as good as software renderers because some effects cannot be rendered on GPU. Dont know if thats what you meant, so i thought ill add that.
@Capeau I'm aware that it isn't the render engine but the hardware that makes rendering faster in THIS case (MT:CPU vs iR:GPU) but because there aren't enough well written GPU render engines out there, I assumed you'd probably prefer Mental Ray, which is -the- most popular amongst all.
Is VrayRT advanced enough to handle more shaders/materials than iRay?
So what if it renders on CPU? Its still faster because it uses smarter sampling.
By the way you said mental ray, not me. I prefer vray, which also can render on GPU by using VrayRT for all the gpu parrots out there who dont know what the difference is ;)
@thedevo01
Yes, vray is defenetly better than mental ray.

@Capeau
Mental Ray = CPU
iRay = GPU
The hell are you on about? D:

Even mental ray is faster and it can do more, so its not such a stupid question as you think... But no thanks, just give me vray ;)

@Capeau lol what? Do you prefer mental ray then?

iray is soooo slow

@111theduke Thanks! That is the beauty of the iRay engine.It is top notch.
